I started with a cheap no name barbell. The problem for me was the knurling was too smooth. I like an aggressive knurling for Deadlifting. So I purchased a better bar for the knurling. But my cheap bar still gets used just about every training session when I use my Landmine. Phil B

Yes, definitely that can be a problem. Sometimes the problem is a too aggressive knurling too! Definitely something to be aware of and, in general, like I said, it's these fit and finish problems that differentiate one from the other, in terms of home use. Thanks for bringing that up, Phil!
